Please consider to parallelise the Creation of backtest data feed (it takes hours)
That's happen with cpu utilization @ 3% !
Could you workaround this issue working the data feed creation backtest on all cores available?
image 28 markets (all the fx pairs) tick by tick ...made one after one and not in parallel... really annoying process.
Thank you.

07.02.2022 06:41+24 hours later and the files are still importing :-(
Just to put this into perspective: exporting one of these tick-data files from MT5 took about 10 minutes each. So a total of 40 minutes to export them, and currently 24 hours+ to import them to SQX, and it´s still running.

07.02.2022 14:49It´s also absolutely crazy what amount of LOG files StrategyQuantX generates during the import. Importing these 4 pairs created 130GB of log files:
07.02.2022 13:41 131.569.745.797 log_2022_02_07.log
1 File(s) 131.569.745.797 bytes
0 Dir(s) 0 bytes free
So that even my disk even went full while importing.
This clearly needs a fix by letting us set the max size of the log file, e.g. 64MB (as an example). After it reaches the max size, the oldest entries are replaced.

10.05.2022 17:15it is faster to backtest on many istances of MT4 with TDS than SQx . in-fact if i want to backtest a strategy that can trade 13 markets , in mt4 it takes few minutes using 13 istances, while on SQx wich is 64 bits and multicores, it takes 34 minutes: 13 markets 2007-2022 retest tooks 34 minutes on a fast cpu on MT4 on a slow cpu using 13 istances it took 10 minutes:
